Xu Yan's eyes lit up, there was a quicksand area ten zhang away in front of him, and even Yue'e in the Innate Realm had almost been hit, and Mr. Qin might not be able to see through this natural trap.
"Give me death!" Seeing that Xu Yan's speed slowed down, Mr. Qin waved his knife to block his way, and slashed out dozens of knives in a row, and the knife did not leave Xu Yan's vital point.
Xu Yan dodged step by step, his expression was a little flustered, Mr. Qin took advantage of the victory to pursue, and he would never be allowed to escape again.
"Look where else you can escape!" Mr. Qin's momentum was like a rainbow, and his long knife was like a maggot on the tarsal bones to follow Xu Yan and keep approaching him.
The quicksand trap was behind him, and at this time, Xu Yan's mind kept calculating the distance from it, and said secretly: "It's now!" The figure suddenly flickered, almost rubbing his scalp to dodge Mr. Qin's long knife, and at the same time revealing a huge flaw on the left side.
Mr. Qin's eyes flashed with joy, Xu Yan revealed his flaws, how could he not catch it, took a step forward and swung a heavy knife, which was bound to take Xu Yan's life. What he didn't expect was that his feet suddenly slipped, and the sand quickly collapsed and sank with him.
The incident happened suddenly, Mr. Qin immediately panicked and wanted to retreat from the quicksand, where would Xu Yan give him a chance, and slapped Mr. Qin on the back with a palm.
Mr. Qin couldn't grasp his balance anymore, half of his body fell into the quicksand trap, and at the last moment, he wanted to grab Xu Yan's arm, but he only grabbed a piece of the cuff of his shirt.
"Help me go up!" Mr. Qin panicked, he had also heard of the deadly quicksand trap of the ghost crying sand, and hurriedly begged for mercy: "I know many secrets, the Great Xia, the Jin Kingdom and your Wu Kingdom, as long as you save me up, everything is easy to say!"
The quicksand enveloped most of Mr. Qin's body, and the terrifying devouring force pulled him down, unless there was help from an external force, he couldn't break free no matter how much strength he had.
The greater the strength of the struggle, the deeper and faster the fall, and Mr. Qin grabbed Xu Yan's clothes with one hand or slipped down a little, so scared that he didn't dare to breathe.
Xu Yan looked at Mr. Qin coldly, smiled coldly, and said, "Do you think I will believe you?"
"Don't you want to know the secret of the key to the Immortal Mansion, even if you are the prince, it is impossible to know such a top secret!" Mr. Qin took out the booklet in his arms with his other hand, held it in his hand and said to Xu Yan: "The secret about it is recorded in the booklet, if you save me, it will be yours." ”
"Good. You hand me the booklet first. Xu Yan was silent for a moment and then agreed.
Mr. Qin's face was overjoyed, as long as Xu Yan stretched out his hand to take the booklet, he was sure to hold Xu Yan's arm, and he was not afraid that Xu Yan would regret it when the time came.
"As long as I wait for me to come up, the first thing I will do is to kill you!" Mr. Qin concealed his killing intent and carefully handed over the booklet.
Xu Yan stood on the edge of the quicksand trap and also stretched out his other hand. At the moment when the two were about to make contact, Xu Yan suddenly had an extra soft sword in his hand, stabbed Mr. Qin's wrist, and then the soft sword picked up the booklet from Mr. Qin's hand.
The booklet flew down on the sand, and Xu Yan cut off his clothes with another sword, and quickly evacuated the quicksand trap.
"No!" Mr. Qin roared, and suddenly rushed out of half of his body to grab Xu Yan, but he pounced.
After losing Xu Yan's support, Mr. Qin no longer had any leverage points, and with a violent struggle, the speed of the fall was faster, and he was dragged into the sinking ground in the blink of an eye.
Eventually, the quicksand trap finally stopped collapsing, and the surrounding sand filled the ground as if nothing had happened, and Mr. Qin just disappeared from his eyes.
Xu Yan wiped a handful of sweat, as long as he was a little slower, he would end up being caught in a trap with Mr. Qin, and there was no possibility of escape.
"Fortunately, I kept an eye on it and hid the soft sword in my sleeve. When collecting Yue'e's corpse, Xu Yan took her soft sword for emergency use.
Xu Yan picked up the booklet that fell on the ground, it was split into two halves when it was picked up, and putting it together did not affect reading.
Regarding the content of this booklet, Mr. Qin did not tell a lie, it did record a lot of secrets of the Jin Kingdom, one of which recorded in detail the experience and harvest of the warriors of the Jin Kingdom who had broken into the Immortal Mansion several times.
Xu Yan finished reading the content with a solemn expression, took a long breath, and said, "No wonder even the Innate Realm martial artists are fighting for it, it's really the influence of the Immortal Mansion is too great. ”
The so-called Immortal Mansion is a mysterious treasure cave mansion that has existed in the world since ancient times, and it is opened once every few decades, and the entrance location is different each time, and only those who have the key to the immortal mansion can enter.
Who left the Immortal Mansion has not yet been determined, but there are rich treasures hidden in it, such as pills, exercises, divine weapons, etc., and even the legendary elixir of immortality. The immortal mansion appears mysterious, and its key is also quite magical. Every ten years before the opening of the Immortal Mansion, the key appears in advance, and often appears with various mineral treasures.
The keys are scattered in various regions, and the number is uncertain, in order to compete for the keys to obtain the qualification to enter the Immortal Mansion, a bloody storm is rolled up in the Xianwu world.
"No wonder the martial arts are strong, including the Jin kingdom and more than a dozen other countries were destroyed by it, the last time the immortal mansion was opened, the emperor of the martial kingdom Xu Yingtian gained greatly, not only his own cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds, but also cultivated a large number of masters. ”
Xu Yan's expression was solemn, if it was just like this, what made him speechless the most was that according to the information recorded in the key of the Immortal Mansion, the next time the Immortal Mansion was opened would be two years later, and the location was exactly in the territory of the Martial Kingdom.
The Martial Kingdom is now extremely strong, and if they are allowed to take the lead in this trip to the Immortal Mansion again, the surrounding countries that are still struggling, including Great Xia, will be in danger.
"This Mr. Qin is a native of the Jin Kingdom, and the reason why he took the risk of tracking down the Innate Realm to the Devil's Crying Sand is probably for the 1 in 10,000 chance of regaining the key to the Immortal Mansion. ”
Xu Yan guessed that there was no great benefit, how could the other party take such a big risk.
Finding out the key to the Immortal Mansion, Xu Yan compared the method recorded in the booklet, and sure enough, from its seemingly chaotic lines, he vaguely identified a map, the center of which was the place where the Immortal Mansion entered.
"It's good to die, this time the entrance to the Immortal Mansion is in the territory of the Martial Kingdom. ”
Xu Yan was a little speechless, the entrance to the Immortal Mansion was easy to say in other places, but it was in the Martial Kingdom, and it was very close to Qing'an City, the capital of the Martial Kingdom.
Now, there are two choices in front of Xu Yan, one is to give up the opportunity to enter the Immortal Mansion and stay away from the Martial Kingdom completely. Second, if Xu Yan didn't want to give up, he had to return to Wuguo as a prince.
"Walking more than sixty miles east out of the Devil's Crying Sand is the only pass to enter the Martial Country, Luoyan Valley, and anyone who enters Luoyan Valley will be strictly checked. ”
At the same time, the officials who welcomed Xu Yan's return team were waiting here, and it was very difficult for Xu Yan to bypass them and sneak into the martial kingdom quietly.
The most important thing is that even if Xu Yan conceals his identity and sneaks into the Martial Kingdom, the security inspection of the Martial Kingdom is strict, and it is also difficult for him to move an inch, and it is too difficult to wait for the opening of the Immortal Mansion in two years.
"If I don't take advantage of the identity of the prince, even if I enter the Martial Kingdom, I can only hide in Tibet, which is not conducive to cultivation. Xu Yan frowned, and hesitated for a moment.
Although the identity of the prince of the Martial Kingdom is a trouble, Xu Yan wants to enter the Immortal Mansion, and continuing to play the identity in front of him is the only choice.
Now, Xu Yan has gotten rid of the two biggest threats of Yue'e and Huang Zu, and there are still two and a half years left before the assessment period of the Star Academy, and with his cultivation speed and the resources in his hands, it is not a big problem to break through the innate realm.
"Breaking through the innate realm is barely qualified, and you can only become a registered student of the Star Academy, and if you want to become a formal student, there is still an assessment. ”
Instead of facing other problems at that time, Xu Yan might as well fight now and break into the Immortal Mansion to find an opportunity to break through the realm of the unity of heaven and man. According to records, the warriors who broke into the Immortal Mansion did have a precedent for achieving the unity of heaven and man.
After weighing it again and again, Xu Yan turned his head to the east in his heart, and went straight to the Luoyan Valley on the border of Wuguo.
